Re: The math of the cans...

I really think at this point having the ability to grab cans in auto will just make you 1) a more appealing robot to scouting teams 2) prevent the other alliance from potentially scoring those cans which will be good for you even if you don't score them yourself 3) Make you more valuable in auton to robots who have a 3 tote auton, or 148 who can get all 3 cans and all 3 totes.

Ultimately, I think grabbing all 4 cans in auton with one robot will prove to be too slow unless someone can get all 4 crazy fast like 3310. I will be willing to bet that on Einstein, if divisions get lucky, the winners will be an alliance that can grab all four cans with 2 robots, while the third does a 3 tote auton, or even just drives forward to the auto zone. I am not too sure yet depending on alliance selections and the depth of the divisions.
